MYTHS ABOUT DIABETES

The first myth – in case of diabetes type 1, cannot eat sweets, fatty and fried ones. “In fact, in type 1 diabetes, the diet of the patient is almost the same as that of a healthy person without diabetes. You can eat anything, just know how much insulin you put into AFTER.

The second myth – buckwheat does not increase blood sugar. In fact, buckwheat is a common carbohydrate, just like barley and oatmeal, and it also boosts blood sugar in the same way. And even more so there is no point in soaking it in kefir for the night, as some who want to lose weight do.

The third myth – honey consists of half of the fructose, so they can replace sugar. Honey is not a sweetener. Fructose – the same carbohydrate, so with obesity, overweight, and diabetes, it is desirable to exclude. For those who cannot live without sweets at all, we recommend using stevia and sucralose as sweeteners.

The fourth myth – WHOLE WHEAT bread increases blood sugar less than white. And this is also not true. If we compare the number of carbohydrates, which is contained in pieces of black and white bread, it will be almost the same.
